[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ILs came for lunch when I was PP and my MIL yelled at me for following medical advice to feed my sleepy baby in just a diaper. Never once asked me how I was doing. They acted like my baby was a trophy that belonged to them. I was livid. She kept acting like this for a few years and I lost my cool with her a few times. Maybe it is because I got mad at her or maybe it is just time, but she doesn't do this anymore now that DC is in elementary school. She is actually incredibly sweet with me and I feel spoiled when we visit them. [b]Babies are hard and new grandparents don't always know what to do (they think they remember but they don't).[/b] It totally makes sense to feel angry and is justified. Of course a postpartum mother should be cared for and if she isn't, that's wrong and gross.[/quote] Umm... and new moms are inexperienced and hormonal. Perhaps everyone should have grace for each other.[/quote]
